The '''Otzeipaonese language''' (Oikan: '''otseipauto''' or '''paunadu''~~') (~~Azkali: '''Anotzeipaona patua~~''') (Otzeipaonese: '''Ro-otzibao a-patoa'~~''), also known as the '''Otzeipao dialect''', or '''Paonadu''', is a language variously described as a mixed language or occasionally a creole, or dialect of Oikan or Azkali spoken in Western Azkali, particularly centered around Otzeipao, and Pordmisktpelha, and to a lesser extant widely across Kalilonde, Sunteria. Due to it's nature as a mixed language, Otzeipaonese is not a part of the Mallo-Brausian language family, nor is it a member of the Azkali languages. Otzeipaonese is mutually intelligible with both Oikan and Azkali, though it remains somewhat more intelligible — though not to an extent where it would be completely intelligible — to Azkali.

With an estimated three and a half million speakers, Otzeipaonese remains the second largest mixed language in which Azkali is a parent language of (the first being Turku Azkali). Otzeipaonese has remained a lingua franca across the Suntero-Azkali border, though declining in recent years due to the influence of both Oikan and Azkali — which virtually all Otzeipaonese speakers can also speak.

Otzeipaonese is one of the few Ukilen languages which features polypersonal agreement. Otzeipaonese can index the subject, direct, and indirect objects of a sentence inside the verb complex, setting the language apart even further from both of it's parent languages. Otzeipaonese is notable in that its verb behave ergatively; the subject markers of an intransitive verb are identical to the direct object of transitive verbs. The reason for this behavior, which has been referred to as Otzeipaonese verb misalignment, has not been determined.

~~Otzeipaonese features two moods — the indicative and subjunctive — three tenses — the far past, past, and non-past — and two aspects — the imperfective and perfective.~~
